This actor doesn't look like a good guy

Chapter 19 Benefits and Conditions

Jiang Bai came to Zhang Jizhong's room.

"Sit down, don't be so restrained, I've called you here this time to discuss the starring role with you."

Jiang Bai nodded, and sat opposite Zhang Jizhong, waiting for him to speak first.

"I have to change the starring role of Shao Bin. You heard it today. Everyone is very satisfied with your role as Linghu Chong, but I still have some considerations, because I am the producer of this drama. If the audience If you are dissatisfied with the actor, besides the lead actor, I will be the first one to scold you, you should understand this, right?"

Jiang Bai nodded: "Understood."

"It's good to understand. In fact, I still have a few candidates. It is not necessary for you. They can consider the degree of suitability of the role, but I am responsible for the ratings. In the end, I have the final say on who to choose. Now there are One problem is that if I want to terminate the contract with Shao Bin, the crew will definitely lose a lot of money.

We have been filming for so long, not only the liquidated damages, but also the expenses, the venue fee and the food and drinks of the staff all cost money. I also need to explain to the investment boss and higher ups. "

Jiang Bai immediately understood what the other party meant when he heard this.

"Director, if I can play Linghu Chong, I don't need to be paid."

Jiang Bai knew that this was his chance.

A sky-high opportunity.

So I said without hesitation.

Zhang Jizhong was very satisfied that Jiang Bai was so knowledgeable.

And the fact is true, the entertainment industry is a vanity fair, it is impossible for him to let such an unknown kid play such an important role.

Even for Zhang Jizhong himself, this drama is considered to be a fairly large production he has taken over since his debut. After the filming is completed, his fame will rise a bit, and this is also an opportunity for celebrities to last through the ages.

But in other words, even if this drama is replaced by Hu Jun or Li Yapeng, the leading actor will be scolded after it is released, which is also popular.

At most, people will say that the leading role is not suitable, but the others are definitely not worse than the Hong Kong version.

Therefore, even if Jiang Bai doesn't want a salary, it's still not enough for him.

"Very good, it seems that communicating with you is not too difficult." Zhang Jizhong nodded, "But I still need your attitude that makes me more satisfied. You have never been well-known, and I don't know what will happen in the future. If it is someone else Come to ask for this role, I will definitely bet on his future, but your words..."

Jiang Bai thought about this for a while.

It should be that if he has capital behind him, maybe Zhang Jizhong will ask for some shares, or part of the actor's salary in the future, that is, the actor as a shareholder.

But even if I acted in this show, I don't have the capital to support it. As time goes by, I may still be left out of the market slowly.

So it is meaningless to ask for shares.

Even if the remuneration of hundreds or thousands is paid in full, so what?
"Director Zhang, just say it straight."

Jiang Bai thought to himself, as long as he doesn't want his own ass, he can consider other conditions.

"I don't want more than 100 million. If you give me 100 million within five years, I will let you play this role. You must know that this role is going outside now. This price is far from enough. It is too much for second- and third-tier or some Potential newcomers come to grab it."

Jiang Bai heard what the other party said.

I thought this old guy really dared to ask for it!
On the surface, there is no need for shares, but this 100 million is enough to work hard for several years.

You must know that buying a two-entry courtyard house in Yanjing is only the price.

It means that in the next few years, everything I do is equivalent to working for the other party.

If he pays off within five years, he still has to accept the other party's favor.

If he still doesn't know, there is no big loss for Zhang Jizhong.

This loan relationship still exists.

I still have to pay back.

Even if you move bricks or work as a small worker on a construction site in the future, you will still have to pay back.

But even so...

Jiang Bai still didn't hesitate at all.

"Okay, Director Zhang, I agree."

Zhang Jizhong also slapped the table happily: "Be courageous, since this is the case, we must write clearly in black and white."

"no problem."

Afterwards, Zhang Jizhong called his assistant directly.

Let the other party draft two contracts.

The general idea is that Jiang Bai, in his personal capacity, agreed to unconditionally donate 100 million to the film crew of Swordsman for filming, but Zhang Jizhong is currently donating this money on his behalf.

Jiang Bai took a general look, and there was nothing wrong with this contract.

The second contract is an authorization contract for Zhang Jizhong to donate on his behalf.

Also no problem.

"I will definitely not cheat you on this. The two of us have to sign an agreement before."

Subsequently, Zhang Jizhong wrote two identical agreements.

The content is that Jiang Bai borrowed Zhang Jizhong's money to donate to the crew unconditionally, but he needs to pay it back with interest within five years from the day when Jiang Bai's role as Linghu Chong in the Xiaoaojianghu crew was completed.

There's a little pitfall in this agreement. .

There is an additional interest on the above.

But Jiang Bai was willing to accept this big gamble.

He also believed in his abilities.

Originally, he was worried that Zhang Jizhong would use this role to tie himself to the opponent's boat.

Looking at it now, such an agreement is at least more free.

So Jiang Bai signed his name again, pressed his fingerprints and wrote his ID number.

After Zhang Jizhong did the same, each party will hold a copy of this agreement.

As for the contract, it needs to be stamped with the crew's official seal tomorrow.

"At that time, I will even give you the actor's contract." Zhang Jizhong said.

Jiang Bai nodded: "Okay, please trouble Director Zhang."

In this way, after the two finalized the matter in private, Zhang Jizhong was also very satisfied with Jiang Bai's happiness.

And Jiang Bai also asked at this time: "Director Zhang, if I just agree to play the role with zero pay, can I still get this role?"

"What are you thinking? Of course not. This is a worthless deal for you. If that's the case, I'd rather spend 200 million yuan to hire a popular movie star to play the role."

"It seems that this is fate." Jiang Bai sighed.

"Yes." Zhang Jizhong stroked his beard. In fact, I really don't like other people dictating me within the scope of my power. Even if I go to Director Huang, Yuan Bin and Mr. Jin, I just want to hear their opinions, but I finally decided Let you act, do you know what I admire most about you? "

"Good acting skills? Do you have martial arts skills?"

"Hahaha." Zhang Jizhong waved his hand, took out a bottle of XO he brought from home from the wine cabinet on the side, took two goblets, and poured a glass for himself and Jiang Bai, "These words Needless to say, I know this is not your sincere words."

"What I value most about you is your awareness of current affairs. At the same time, you also have ambitions that no one else has. I met Zhang Ziyi before. I thought she was the most ambitious actor I have ever seen, but after meeting you, I realized that You are the one, your eyes don't look like what people of your age should have at all, you are like Zuo Lengchan in the Jianghu, although not as good as Zuo Lengchan's initial position as the head of the Songshan School, but you are more young."

"To be honest, I actually want to bring you under my command, but I'm afraid I won't be able to control you, so I'd better let you harm others."

Jiang Bai smiled, thinking that this bearded man was very accurate in seeing people.

It's okay if you work for the bearded man yourself, and it's even okay to consider him as a foster father.

But in the same way, Zhang Jizhong must also tilt all resources to his side, otherwise, Jiang Bai will definitely regard Zhang Jizhong as his righteous father in the future.

It's just that only Jiang Bai knows best.

It's not so easy to be your foster father.
